A barrier island retreat between Savannah and Jacksonville, Jekyll Island pairs ten miles of uncrowded Atlantic beach and 24 miles of biking paths with a walkable roster of sports venues, all set inside a state park where nearly 70 percent of the land is undeveloped. The island is home to Georgia’s largest public golf resort and the only oceanfront convention center on the East Coast south of New Jersey.
